Thank you Lanann13 and Balacafa for agreeing to do this debate with us. This is a team debate that I'm sure that we'll all learn something new from. This topic is a largely controversial one, and has been an increasingly debatable issue in both the UK and US for a while. I (famousdebater) would also like to thank TheProphett for agreeing to do this team debate with me. I'm sure that this will prove to be as successful as all of the other team debates that I've done so far.
Our framework will be centered around the ideology of socialism. Socialism promotes equality for the poor. Socialist goals include making sure the poor aren't too burdened (basic needs are met) and making sure that they are given equal opportunities and sufficient living and working conditions [2]. We will demonstrate that socialism is the morally superior and preferable ideology and I will explain the position that a socialist would take in this debate and why.
Morality is defined as the degree to which something is right and wrong [1]. Socialists care about all members of society. Socialism's rival economic system, capitalism [3], violates the universal system of morality [4]. In order for capitalism to work it needs poor people. Without poverty the whole concept of capitalism crumbles because society would be equal and would therefore be socialist [5]. Poverty kills people, and it kills them inhumanely in a slow and painful manner [6]. Since poverty violates our universal concept of morality then we ought to consider socialism as the more moral option and as a result, the option that we ought to incline towards.
This issue is simple and will become even simpler when our counterplan is taken into consideration. By taxing the rich more the burden put on the poor can be taken off due to the amount needed for tax collection being fulfilled by the rich alone. The burden put off of the poor is immense, and we will prove this in the following arguments. If the poor have to pay less, then this effectively means that the poor are put into a more financially stable position which fulfills the goal of socialism.
Morality plays a big part in this debate. Our framework lays the foundation for the creation of arguments based on morality and the betterment of society. If our framework is not adequately rebutted, I would like the judges to look through a lense of morality at the cases, and determining what team justified the rights and wrongs of their arguments.
Taxing the Rich
Those who would wish to negate this resolution see the taxation of the wealthy as detrimental. This team will prove that this statement is false and that society as a whole would benefit from increased taxation of the wealthy (as defined in the opening round). [7] Economist Joseph E. Stiglitz, a nobel prize laureate in economics, stated the following, "It is "absurd" to argue that most wealth at the top is already highly taxed or that there isn't much more revenue to be had by raising taxes on the 1 percent. The only upside of the concentration of the wealth at the top is that they have more money to pay in taxes." This statement carries an immense amount of weight with regard to the resolution. The wealth of America is concentrated at the top of the economic totem pole while those who are less fortunate endure an unreasonable tax burden [7]. The taxes paid by the less fortunate could be used to pay for education or increase the quality of the lives of their children. The idea that taxing the rich is in some sense wrong or detrimental to any component of society or our economy is absurd, and if taxes are not increased at the top so as to benefit the less fortunate, then the bottom will continue to sink lower.
(a) Concentrating an increase in taxation on the wealthy and lessening the burden on the lower fifths [7] would lift the bottom up. There are many reasons to allow the poor "breathing room," such as better care for our future generations and increased quality of life for the lower class (which has many net benefits for society). Other problems the poor face include [8] holding the lowest paying and most unstable jobs, having part-time rather than full-time employment, lacking access to higher education, and less access to healthcare. It is not wrong or questionable to concentrate taxation on the wealthiest earners in the nation, but rather it is a reasonable approach to solve simple problems within our economy and society.
(b) Taxing the rich will increase the ease of access to top tier education in our nation, and we have tangible evidence to prove this claim. According to the New York Times [7], "If the tax increases were limited to just the 115,000 households in the top 0.1 percent, with an average income of $9.4 million, a 40 percent tax rate would produce $55 billion in extra revenue in its first year. That would more than cover, for example, the estimated $47 billion cost of eliminating undergraduate tuition at all the country's four-year public colleges and universities, as Senator Bernie Sanders has proposed, or Mrs. Clinton's cheaper plan for a debt-free college degree, with money left over to help fund universal prekindergarten." We can do a lot more for our economy and society than just improving the quality of lives for our citizens; we can give them an education that will serve them throughout their lives. What could be of greater value than increasing taxes by about five percent on the rich and in return allowing for the broader education of the nation's citizens?
Counter Plan
As briefly mentioned earlier, we will be proposing a counterplan. The counterplan will be the new system that we believe should be enforced. The counterplan is as follows:
Proposal 1: Bracketed tax system, with the "rich" as specified in the debate receiving a percentage less than 50% but at least 5% more than the middle class.
Proposal 2: The lowest earners receive no taxes and instead are allowed to focus on employment, raising children, education, etc.
Our first proposal fits the resolution as the rich are being taxed more. Therefore it stands.
Our second proposal is fits in with the resolution since there is no debate format prohibiting us from making additional proposals that ultimately lead us to affirming. This also coincides with our socialism based framework since we are creating equality since the rich are making $1,000,000+ per year (as the definitions state) and therefore, additional taxation (especially since we do not believe that it should be increased to an unrealistic or an overly high amount), is not an unrealistic claim. Since the poorest members of societies often have families and children it violates socialism (and our socialist framework) when you make the claim that they should have to continue to pay tax.
National Debt
This is relates back to the counterplan. If the minimum amount of money required to be considered rich is $1million then let's look at what 1% of that is. 1% of $1 million is $10,000. So adding on 1% to the poorest of the richest will get $10,000. In the US there are 536 billionaires [9]. Logically the lowest amount of money that these people have is $1 billion. So let's see the taxation of an additional 1% and see how much we can make from it. 1% of $1 billion is $10,000,000 ($10 million). The members of society grouped into the lowest fifth make slightly under $13,000 [7],with an additional 1% of their tax (similarly to the the proposed taxation on the rich),then their contribution would make no impact in the grand scheme of things considering that $130 (1% of 13,000) is 0.0013% of 10,000,000. Now let's put this into the context of the national debt, the national debt is currently at $19,000,000,000,000 ($19 trillion). To expect people paying $130 in taxation to pay this off is ridiculous.
With the money and wealth of the billionaires in the US not only could we wipe out the national debt significantly quicker but we could also use the increase in taxation to prevent further accumulation of our national debt before paying it off. This will ultimately be done because with the increase in taxation on the rich government borrowing will be reduced because they will not have as much of a demand for the money. This could easily go a long way towards wiping out this year's estimated federal deficit of $426 billion [7].After this we can work towards paying off the national debt which will take 29 years with the accumulated taxation of the richest 1%, however since the definition of rich includes all of those that make over $1,000,000 yearly this means that it will be quicker than 29 years to pay it off. That means the debt could be payed off in less than 1 generation [10]! Therefore we stand with our claim that taxing the rich more would result in beneficial actions towards the national debt and our deficit.
To conclude, we believe that the resolution is affirmed due to the fact that we have provided tangible and reliable evidence to prove our contentions and arguments to be true. We thank our opponents once again for their acceptance. Vote Pro!

We thank our opponent's for their patience in this debate, but without further ado, let's jump in.
Arthur Laffer came up with the argument commonly referred to as the Laffer Curve or Laffer's Curve. The idea behind the relationship between tax rates and tax revenues is that changes in tax rates have two different effects on revenues. They are called the arithmetic effect on revenues and the economic effect on revenues.
Laffer describes the arithmetic effect,
"simply that if tax rates are lowered, tax revenues (per dollar of tax base) will be lowered by the amount of the decrease in the rate. The reverse is true for an increase in tax rates." [1]
He then goes on to explain the second effect on revenues which is the economic effect. He explains the economic effect on revenue by saying:
"The economic effect recognizes the positive impact that lower tax rates have on work, output, and employment--and thereby the tax base--by providing incentives to increase these activities. Raising tax rates has the opposite economic effect by penalizing participation in the taxed activities." [1]
As we can see is demonstrated by these explanations, the arithmetic effect clearly works in the opposite direction to the economic one as a result of this when both of the tax rate changes are combined it is more difficult to predict the consequences of the change in tax rates on total tax revenues [2].
Laffer constructed the following figure (figure 1) to "graphically illustrate" the concept of Laffer's Curve. It is important to note that the graph does not represent the exact levels of taxation corresponding to specific levels of revenues. He notes that there would be no tax revenue at a tax rate of 0% no matter how large the tax base is [1]. He also notes that on the opposite end of the spectrum the result that they would conclude from would be the same. At a tax rate of 100%, the government would collect no tax revenue because no one would willingly work for an after-tax wage of zero, as is evident, there would be no tax base. Between these two peaks, there are two tax rates. A high tax rate on a small tax base and a low tax rate on a large tax base.
Contention 2: Tax Cuts in History
History teaches an important lesson as it has shown that high taxation has hindered the US economy while on the flip side, tax cuts and lowering taxation on the rich has had major economic benefits as well as helping the average American.
The World had begun to change during World War 1 when the world began to expierence key economic powers fight each other after the first failure of the Concert of Europe. Many people mistake the economic recession in 1920 on the retooling of US factories in the post-war era. This is completely false as taxation during the Wilson administration were at 73% [3]. Normally, the US would have recovered after the war due to the inflow of cash, but the factory owners had little money to spend on retooling which had left a great deal of people unemployed. When Harding took office he cut taxation down to 58% by 1923 and Cooledge brought it down to 25%. This massive cut in taxes created a great deal of open and aviable capital for the business who created more jobs and the economy expanded into an era known as the Roaring 20's and unemployment was haved!
s://lh5.googleusercontent.com...; alt="" width="624" height="356" />
Another factor to measure this is by economic growth from the GDP. Under Wilson the growth rate was a mere 1.4% while under Harding and Cooledge it was over 4%. [4]
Despite the lowering of taxes by these two presidents, they were undone by President FDR who raised taxes into the 90s. They remained that way until JFK came into power. Despite only cutting taxes by 20% down to 70%, this cut unemployment in half. To make things even better, GDP had expanded to a 5% growth rate, bouncing back from the recession. [5] The budget deficet was nearly dropped to 0 under these tax plans.
s://lh6.googleusercontent.com...; alt="" width="575" height="400" />
Finally we have Ronald Reagan, the fiscal conservative. Since the JFK administration, the tax rate stayed at 70%. Reagan tackled this issue, dropping tax rates down to 28%. Unemployment was, once again, cut in half as it fell from 10 to 5%. [6] The Real GDP per capita skyrocketted under Reagan as it was 8.6% under President Carter, it grew to 23.4% at the end of Reagan's 8 year term. [7] During this time period millions multipled by 7 and the nation's wealth grew.
Contention 3: Ethics
John Rawls's Veil of Ignorance
We my first clarify a few things and the first task is to eliminate the bias behind this topic. Here we have to look at it through John Rawls Veil of Ignorance. Here one must look through Rawl's Veil of Ignorance. In order to do that one's creed, race, sex, religion, political views, and generation does not matter. This in in order to eliminate bias from the viewer in order to view his two principles of Difference and Equality. The Equality Principle is that the greatest extent of Liberty for everyone. The other states that it must benefit everyone, including the least advantaged, must be open to everyone, and your enemy chooses your position in that society or scenario. [8] In order to come behind this Veil must be a Rational Creature. Though this creates an interesting point of view since no person would have their taxes raised. This would create a system where jobs loss and high unemployment will cause people to go against this plan due to it's negitive affects. to continue, we can see that when you observe the fact that your opponent will decide your place in society then you can see that you would be the unemployed and worst affected by the plan. This plan creates a new kind of underlying societal class that leaves much to be desired.
This situation fails the Veil of Ignorance and thus it is unethical.
Social Costs Principles
The Social Costs Prinicple, or also known as Externality, states that even if something negative comes out of a plan then it should be negated. [9] This is due to the fact that humanity is completely needed and should be cared for to the upmost care. The fact is, that when we observe this plan we can see that the high unemployment rates, job loss, and other negative effects, will cause a harm to humanity and should not occur. Due to the failure under the Social Costs Principle, this plan should not be enacted.
Kant's Universal Principle
Kant's Universal Principle is exactly as it sounds. The principle is applied to everyone and if this fails to work for everyone then it fails as a plan and should not be enacted. [10] My opponent's plan even shows that this plan fails as the rich are being taxed more. This alone shows that the plan fails this test as not everyone's taxes are not being raised. It is also well known that people do not like their taxes being raised and that is a factor that needs to be accounted for in this debate. When we look at raising taxes on everyone we can see that there would be less revenue and less jobs avalable, as we've shown in earlier arguments.
This plan fails the test of Universalization and is unethical.

OBV 1: There is no clear framework set by our opponent's since they refer to a number of moral principles. Since there is no alternative framework provided then voters ought to vote based on our framework since there is no alternative. Our opponent's cannot bring an alternative framework as a rebuttal to our framework because an alternative framework is an argument, not a rebuttal. In the rebuttals round our opponent can critique and prove our framework wrong (if they are able to do so), however since no alternative framework is provided voters ought to presume our framework (unless our opponents manage to prove that our framework is worse than no framework).
The Laffer Curve
Our opponents brought up the interesting argument of the Laffer Curve, but our team is not quite sure about the role it plays in their argument. The Laffer Curve is defined as, "this curve shows the relationship between tax rates set by the government and how much money the government collects based upon the set rate." [4] Judging by the picture seen in source [4], there is a spectrum of tax rates, starting at 0% and stopping at 100% (which is the maximum amount of possible taxation). According to the graph, the highest point of the graph (T*) is at about a 50% tax rate, more than our proposed tax rates actually are. This highest point represents the maximum amount of government revenue while maintaining a reasonable rate, so that employment does not drop or people do not feel motivated to work purely because of an obscene tax rate. An argument such as this one, in which the highest yield of tax rates is closer to one that the affirmative side is suggesting, is in all honesty quite silly, considering the fact that it plays directly into our main point of contention. "High" tax rates, or what the Laffer Curve considers to be the point of maximum revenue and satisfaction, do not penalize workers for their hours put in at the job; tax rates are all about raising money for the government so that programs can be further developed to aid the citizens in all respects. In the end, high tax rates concentrated on the rich is the means by which to achieve a bottom of society that doesn't look so far from the top.
Historical and Beneficial Tax Raises
Our opponents historical examples here are not picked. To neutralize the impact of this contention we simply must provide examples in which taxes raises were beneficial. We aim to take the rebuttal further into turning it round to support our case.
It is important to note that our opponent's mention that JFK lowered tax rates down to 70% however, that is still in favor of our proposed percentages. Our opponent's suggest that the 70% tax rate was beneficial to the economy so this example actually supports our case rather than theirs.
Now I'll get onto some beneficial historic tax raises. Of course we have the JFK argument which our opponent's have kindly given us and we also have another historical example.
During the American revolution, congress accepted loans from France. Paying off these loans was proven to be a difficult task. However, 20 years after the loans were taken from France (in 1775), they managed to completely pay off these loans (in 1795) [1]. Congress' first solution was to print more money but this just lead to hyperinflation. Eventually, under the US constitution of 1789 the the new federal government raised taxes on the rich which ended up paying off the debt to France and even extended even further than the aims that they set because it managed to also contribute to some of their other debts to other countries as well due to its success [1].
Even if you are buying Con's argument over ours you should be aware that a large portion of their argument is bare assertion and is justified using source [5]. If you were to look at source [5] you'd find this word: "ibid". That is not a source of information. Our opponent's argument is primarily bare assertion, this is enough to negate the contention alone.
Our opponent's arguments are cancelled out because they haven't proven anything other than that taxes can be beneficial and bad. Since it is very difficult to observe every single tax raise and drop to calculate which is more beneficial overall this contention is neuralized. But it doesn't end here. Our opponent's end up arguing in our favor so the argument that they provided changes the previous neutralization into a contention that ultimately provides us with weight that bares impact upon the resolution.
We agree that the debate should be looked at through the veil of ignorance however our opponents make big leaps in their argument which is important to note. Con asks who would want their taxes to be raised? Since their arguments is subjective we will also provide examples of subjective inclinations as to why somebody would agree with higher taxes. Our opponent's argument seems very dismissive of details in the resolution, specifically the fact that we are raising taxes on the rich, not everyone. Somebody may want higher taxes on the rich so that the poor do not have to pay as much in taxes (as our plan suggests); so that the people that have enough money to lead good quality lives can ensure the same for those less fortunate; so that the national debt can be payed off; so that we can pay for more equal opportunities (ie. lowering university fees), etc [2].
Social cost principles completely ignores this as a two sided debated. It looks at the negative arguments solely and says that because of these harms we ought to presume Con. This, again, fails to account for all the negatives of Con's side. I'll restate the list just as a reiteration, the poor do not have to pay as much in taxes (as our plan suggests); so that the people that have enough money to lead good quality lives can ensure the same for those less fortunate; so that the national debt can be payed off; so that we can pay for more equal opportunities (ie. lowering university fees), etc [2]. Both sides of the debate fail under this principle, so therefore it should not be considered when analyzing the debate.
Kant's Universal Principle begs the question of whether subjectivity is superior to objectivity. Our opponents state that rich people do not like being taxed, therefore they shouldn't be taxed. Firstly, the claim that the rich don't like being taxed is unsupported. Secondly, we have to analyze the wider impacts. We're ultimately weighing happiness vs poverty. Our opponent's state that we shouldn't do this because the rich will be unhappy. We state that we should because otherwise poverty will be of greater quantity because the poor do not have to pay taxes and can focus their money on providing for their family. Since our opponent's provide no alternative framework voters should be viewing this contention under the socialist framework and this is made evident that it should go in our favor. Socialism works towards equality between the rich and the poor. If we allow poverty to be considered inferior to happiness of the rich then the poor are being burdened with poverty which is an immediate violation of the socialist framework proposed [2][3].

By Karthik Ganesh:
Politics is the science of running governmental affairs based on a ruling principle that shapes the identity of a nation. Politics in essence involves the art of forming, directing and administrating political units by a chosen set of ardent leaders who represent the interests of the majority of the people of the nation.
The origin of politics dates back to early 2100 B.C with the monarchical rule practiced in the lands of Sumeria shaping the concept of legislation. But since the conception of the ideology of governance, the fairer sex has not had an equitable representation at the helm of decision making. In spite of being the largest democracy in the world, women's representation is only 9.1 percent in the Indian parliament.
In this male-dominated power game of politics, there are women leaders who have revolutionized the space of policymaking with their adroit and finesse. Listed below are the stories of five powerful female Indian politicians of all time who showed the world that women can be brilliant administrators.
– Vijay Lakshmi Pandit, an Indian diplomat and politician, heralded as one of the world's leading women in public life in the 20th century, was the daughter of noted aristocratic nationalist leader Motilal Nehru. She was an active worker in the Indian nationalist movement and was imprisoned by the British three times on accounts of her struggle to free India. In 1937, she was elected to the provincial legislature of the United Provinces and was designated as the minister of local self-government and public health making her the first woman in India to hold a cabinet post. During the course of her work as a diplomat for independent India, she became the first woman President of the United Nations General Assembly in 1953. After holding office as the governor of Maharashtra from 1964-1968, she retired from active politics after relations between her and her niece Indira Gandhi became sour.
– Sonia Gandhi: the Italian born Indian politician and the longest serving President of the Indian National Congress belongs to the dominant Nehru-Gandhi family. A regular member of the most powerful and influential people lists conducted by Forbes and Time magazine, she has been pivotal in steering the decision-making process of the ruling government. In spite of holding no official post in the Indian government, she has been the instrumental force in ensuring the survival of the UPA-I and UPA-II despite the innumerable scams and poor administration carried out by the Congress party. Currently, she is at the heart of the largest democracy in the world. A really powerful woman to say the least.
– Sucheta Kriplani: She was an Indian freedom fighter and politician who holds the distinction of being the first female Chief Minister of an Indian state. An active worker for the Quit India movement, she worked in close association with Mahatma Gandhi at the time of partition. She was an integral part of the subcommittee that laid down the charter for the Indian Constitution. Known as a firm administrator, she held office of the Uttar Pradesh government as a Chief Minister and was widely enamoured for her sense of fairness and transparency.
– Indira Gandhi: Better known as the Iron Lady of India, she was the first woman Prime Minister of India who held office for three consecutive terms from 1966-1977. She was the only child of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and carried on his ideologies and his work on the industrial development front. She was vital in establishing closer relations with the Soviet Union as an ally which has been successful till date. With her at the helm, India formulated the Nuclear Program, the Green Revolution and went on to nationalize local banks. Under her tenure, India also went on a war with Pakistan which ended up with around ten million refugees fleeing to India and led to the establishment of the independent country of Bangladesh. During the period of Emergency imposed by her government to save her from being indicted on accounts of electoral malpractice, she went on to rule India as an autocratic leader during the period of 1975-1977, before she was assassinated by her bodyguards in 1984 for her ordering of the Operation Blue Star.
– Mamta Banerjee: Didi from the lands of West Bengal rose to the fore in the last election when she and a movement she built from the grassroots, wrested control of her home state, ending three and a half decades of rigid Communist rule. Despite being labelled by critics as a shrieking street fighter, she has proved to be a consummate politician and a tough cookie to crack. Adhering to her incorruptible nature and riding on the principles of Maa, Maati, Manush, she has emerged as a populist woman leader who would play an integral role in taking the Indian democracy forward in the days to come.
The inspirational stories of these five female leaders have illustrated the necessity of having more women leaders at the helm in our government so as to ensure that we develop an equitable society where both the sexes have access to the same set of resources in order to progress in their lives.

Being abstract and didactic is fun and all, but now it's time to get practical. Starting a company didn't work out for me, so I'm turning to focus on another dream that's been tugging at my sleeve for a few years—to become a freelance writer and translator.
Why would I pursue such an unstable career, you ask?
Several reasons:
1) Independence! I'm not built for the corporate life. Few things suffocate my productivity as much as the mind-numbing routine of slathering toxic chemicals all over my face, squeezing into starchy clothes, and sitting in an excessively air conditioned office for 8 hours straight surrounded by people I don't like.
2) There is a Muse inside me who's desperate to be heard. She's full of creativity and ideas, but she has no way to get out—so I need to hone the craft of writing and pave the way for her to shine.
3) I have a monstrous fear of writing that rears his head every time I sit down to an empty document. As Steven Pressfield explains in The War of Art, our biggest fears ("resistance") often block the path that will lead us to a higher level of self-actualization and internal freedom. I believe I can master this fear through practice and study.
While I'm on the subject, I'll share a great quote from The War of Art:
Sometimes we balk at embarking on enterprise because we're afraid of being alone. We feel comfortable with the tribe around us; it makes us nervous going off into the woods on our own.
Here's the trick: We're never alone. As soon as we step outside the campfire glow, our Muse lights on our shoulder like a butterfly. The act of courage calls forth infallibly that deeper part of ourselves that supports and sustains us.
This blog shall serve as a testament to my dedication to the Art of Writing. I hereby intend to chart my progress through books on the subject and write about whatever else comes to mind.
Wish me luck, Internet. I know you believe in me.

Elissa welcomes Saint Arnold Brewing company for beer and meat biscuit tasting
GALVESTON - Historic preservation meets the art of brewing onboard the 1877 tall ship Elissa, Saturday, June 18 at 5:30 p.m. Join Houston's Saint Arnold's Brewery at the Texas Seaport Museum for an special afternoon beer tasting onboard the official tall ship of Texas. While you're there, learn about one of Galveston's first Custom's Collector, Gail Borden and even taste his patented food, the Meat Biscuit. Individuals purchasing a ticket before June 11 will be entered into a contest for a rare, overnight stay on board the Elissa the night of the event. Tickets are $30 per person and include complimentary beer and access onboard Elissa. Reservations can be made at www.galvestonhistory.org.
Lennie Ambrose, Events and Marketing Director for Saint Arnold states, "Not only does the style of our Elissa India Pale Ale match with the great history of the tall ship Elissa, but working with Galveston Historical Foundation is also a great match with the philosophy of our company. We want to educate folks on what a great beer can really be and the supporters of GHF have long been educating the people of Texas about our rich maritime history."
Gail Borden and Meat Biscuits
From 1839 to 1851, Gail Borden Jr. served as secretary and agent for the Galveston City Company. A native New Yorker, Borden came to Texas in 1829. Before joining the City Company, Borden served as customs collector for the Port of Galveston beginning in 1837. His term only lasted a year and a half before Republic of Texas President Mirabeau Lamar removed him for political reasons. He was reinstated in 1841 for a second term before ultimately resigning after a dispute with Sam Houston. In addition to his work with the city, Borden was an avid inventor, creating a sail-wagon and a process for developing condensed milk.
In 1850, Gail Borden received Patent #7066 for "Preparation of Portable Soup-Bread" or creation of a traveling meat biscuit. Although ultimately unsuccessful, the invention won a gold medal at the Great Council exhibition in London in 1851.
Meant to revolutionize sea travel, Borden claimed meat biscuits had a higher nutritional value than traditional hardtack. When protected from moisture in a tin can, the biscuits lasted at least a month. Meat Biscuits could be made using whatever protein source was cheap and plentiful including beef, veal, fowls, and oysters. The biscuits could be eaten plain, or made into soup.
About the ELISSA
Named in 2005 by the Texas legislature as the Official Tall Ship of Texas, Elissa is one of only three 19th-century iron square-riggers in the World that continues to sail. Built in 1877 in Aberdeen, Scotland, the iron-hulled vessel boasts a 90-year commercial history during which she carried a variety of cargoes to ports around the world, including Galveston. A National Historic Landmark and a fully functional sailing vessel, Elissa has achieved a special place in history by sailing in the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries.
After being abandoned as a freighter in Piraeus Harbor, Greece, Elissa was rescued in the 1970s by a group of preservationists who refused to let her and her rich history die. Following extensive restoration, she today is part of the museum's permanent exhibit and one of Galveston Island's most popular attractions. Measuring 205 feet in length with a height of 99 feet and nine inches at the main mast, she carries 19 sails that cover more than a quarter of an acre in surface area. When not sailing, Elissa is open for daily tours at the Texas Seaport Museum, located at Pier 22, just off Harborside Drive in downtown Galveston.

29 CFR 1625.4 - Help wanted notices or advertisements.
(a) Help wanted notices or advertisements may not contain terms and phrases that limit or deter the employment of older individuals. Notices or advertisements that contain terms such as age 25 to 35, young, college student, recent college graduate, boy, girl, or others of a similar nature violate the Act unless one of the statutory exceptions applies. Employers may post help wanted notices or advertisements expressing a preference for older individuals with terms such as over age 60, retirees, or supplement your pension.
(b) Help wanted notices or advertisements that ask applicants to disclose or state their age do not, in themselves, violate the Act. But because asking applicants to state their age may tend to deter older individuals from applying, or otherwise indicate discrimination against older individuals, employment notices or advertisements that include such requests will be closely scrutinized to assure that the requests were made for a lawful purpose.

Todd Kendhammer's face showed a bit of shock when the guilty verdict was read.
Kendhammer is now convicted of First Degree Intentional Homicide in the death of his wife Barbara in September 2016.
The 12-person jury came back with the guilty verdict after nearly nine hours of deliberations Thursday afternoon and evening.
They ultimately didn't believe the version of events that Kendhammer said happened the morning of September 16. He said that as he and his wife traveled down the road in their car, a pipe fell from a passing truck and smashed through the windshield and struck her in the head. She died the next day in a La Crosse hospital.
The jury came back with the verdict shortly after 9 p.m.
Family members gasped with shock when Judge Todd Bjerke read the decision aloud in the courtroom.
After the verdict was read, Judge Todd Bjerke asked each juror verbally what their verdict was. All replied guilty.
Bjerke revoked Kendhammer's bail once the guilty verdict was in.
Kendhammer was handcuffed and not allowed to hug or have any physical contact with his family. He was then led crying from the courtroom by two deputies.
District Attorney Tim Gruenke said later that it proves that domestic violence can happen anywhere and that it can happen behind closed doors even in a perfect relationship.
Emotional Kendhammer family members and friends shouted expletives and shoved WXOW reporter Caroline Hecker when she asked for comments as they were leaving the courthouse. Kendhammer's attorneys refused to talk to the media.
Kendhammer is now in the La Crosse County Jail where he's awaiting sentencing which is set for March 9, 2018.
8:15 p.m. Update: Jurors continue their deliberations.
6:45 p.m. Update: Jurors remain behind closed doors in deliberation. It isn't clear how late into the evening they will continue those deliberations. If they don't reach a verdict, plans call for the jury to be sequestered at a local hotel until Friday morning.
They have asked to see a number of exhibits and documents during their deliberations. A bailiff was seen taking those exhibits out of the courtroom during the afternoon.
The fate of Todd Kendhammer is now up to the jury.
After closing arguments and rebuttal, Judge Todd Bjerke gave jurors final instructions.
The jury was then reduced to 12 people. 14 jurors had heard all the evidence.
Todd Kendhammer picked two numbers representing two jurors. One was then dismissed entirely while the other will be kept in a separate room as an alternate in case one of the 12 jurors falls ill or can't continue for some reason.
The jury then left the courtroom to begin their deliberations on the First Degree Intentional Homicide charge against Kendhammer.
Following DA Tim Gruenke, the defense made their closing remarks to the jury.
Attorney Stephen Hurley said early in his remarks, "Nobody ever saw them (Todd and Barbara) argue...not in 25 years of marriage."
As for the injuries to Barbara, Hurley said of the prosecution's assertion that Todd beat her, "If they're saying those injuries came from Todd...that he caused it...they better prove it." Hurley said they didn't. "The evidence doesn't support any theory the prosecution is trying to get you to buy."
Hurley then went through the timeline of events and the subsequent searches by investigators. He said Barbara put her purse in the backseat of the car because she needed to hold her Bubba mug filled with water in her lap as it didn't fit into the cup holder. Hurley contends that when the pipe came through the windshield, Barb came forward and her head was driven into the cup and subsequently the dashboard. "When you duck, you're restrained by the seat belt, but not in such a way as when the breaks are applied."
He later said that the scratches on Barbara's neck were caused by the windshield glass and the Bubba mug.
Hurley said that as for Todd Kendhammer not remembering certain portions of what happened that day, "The only thing that was important to him was his wife." He said that Kendhammer asked more than 50 times how his wife was doing while at the crash scene because that's all his mind was thinking about.
He also questioned the motive why Todd killed Barbara. "If your spouse tells you they're working the night shift, you're going to beat them to death? Are you kidding me?" Todd Kendhammer said he was switching to the night shift at Crown Cork and Seal where he worked.
"When you have no motive, and all the evidence shows there is no motive, where's the proof that this was an intentional assault. What reason would Todd Kendhammer have to assault his wife?"
He concluded by asking the jury to demand proof and to not take the state's invitation to filling in the blanks with speculation. He asked the jury to find his client not guilty.
Closing arguments are underway in the homicide trial of Todd Kendhammer.
"We're here to seek the truth with Barbara Kendhammer," said La Crosse County District Attorney Tim Gruenke as he began his statement.
When Todd Kendhammer said a pipe fell off a truck, Gruenke said, "We know that's not true." Gruenke said Kendhammer didn't tell the truth on a number of times regarding the circumstances surrounding Barbara's death. "His lies continued through the trial."
Throughout his closing, Gruenke said Kendhammer lied repeatedly about the events of September 16. Gruenke said Kendhammer lied about going to get a truck to repair a windshield that morning, lied about not seeing a witness who drove by the Kendhammer vehicle on Bergum Coulee Road that morning.
"My grandfather said you can't trust a man who lies to you. You can't this man who lied to you," Gruenke said of Kendhammer.
At another point, Gruenke said, "The pipe didn't fly through the windshield, the defendant put it there." Kendhammer said a pipe fell from a passing truck and came through the windshield of their vehicle and hit Barbara.
As for Todd Kendhammer not being able to remember some things and not others that happened on that day, Gruenke also said to jurors, "He forgets a lot of things that day that I think most people would say is burned into their minds forever."
Towards the end of his closing argument, Gruenke said, "I believe Todd Kendhammer lost control, snapped, and beat his wife to death for some reason he's not telling us."
To close, he said simply, "He killed her. He should be held accountable."
Closing arguments are set to begin Thursday morning in the homicide trial of Todd Kendhammer.
He's the West Salem man accused of killing his wife in September 2016.
Testimony ended Wednesday afternoon for both the prosecution and defense.
Following closing arguments from each side, Judge Todd Bjerke will give final instructions to the jury, who will then begin their deliberations.

Poll: Majority of likely New York voters oppose constitutional convention
New York voters likely to take part in next week's elections overwhelmingly oppose the referendum to hold a state constitutional convention, a new Siena College poll found.
Likely voters say they will vote "no" on the constitutional convention proposal by a wide margin — 57 percent to 25 percent, according to the poll.
Voters also thought by a 60 percent to 29 percent margin that a convention in 2019 would "be an expensive waste of time rather than a once-in-a-generation opportunity to bring our state constitution into the 21st Century."
According to the poll, more than one-third of likely voters say they've heard or read a great deal about a convention and another 27 percent said they've read or heard some about it. Only 19 percent said they haven't read or heard anything about a convention referendum, which is down significantly from the summer.
"If history is any guide, the turnout in next week's elections figures to be very light. In 2013, fewer than one in three registered New York voters cast their ballots. So, the decision of whether or not New York should hold a constitutional convention in 2019 will likely be decided by a small minority of New Yorkers — those who both vote in Tuesday's election, and remember to flip the ballot to the back to vote on ConCon," said Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg. "With less than a week till election day, those likely voters are decidedly negative about supporting ConCon. In fact, only one-quarter of likely voters say they're prepared to vote 'yes.'"
Greenberg also said that opposition to a constitutional convention is bipartisan. It is opposed by 55 percent of moderates, 56 percent of liberals and 60 percent of conservatives.

New Yorkers vote every 20 years on whether or not to hold a constitutional convention in Albany. The last time a convention was held was in 1967.
While the convention referendum seeks stark opposition, the other two statewide proposals on the ballot see strong support, the poll found. The proposed amendment related to pension forfeiture for public officers convicted of felonies related to their official duties is supported by an 82 percent to 14 percent margin and the amendment related to the land bank for the Adirondacks and Catskills is supported 46-35 percent.
Election Day is Nov. 7.

MoBay crying out for quality investment – JTB boss
Dennis Morrison, chairman of the Jamaica Tourist Board (JTB), has charged the Montego Bay Chamber of Commerce and Industry to spur further investment in the continued development of the city, saying that the investment climate in Jamaica was teeming with development prospects.
"Investment opportunities are staring us in the face. Let us take, for instance, the present condition of what was once a vibrant area of commerce, the Hip Strip; it is disheartening and disappointing to see the closed shutters on hotels and other tourism-related businesses on the Hip Strip," said Morrison.
no excuse
Morrison, who was delivering the keynote address at last Tuesday's launch of the second annual MoBay City Run, which provides financial assistance to young students pursuing tertiary education, said it was an opportune time for Jamaicans to invest and reap the benefits available.
"There is no excuse, and we should not wait for foreign investors to come in, and then complain about their presence, which is what we tend to do," added Morrison.
The JTB chairman, in giving further rationale for investing in Montego Bay, pointed to the need for employment opportunities for young people, whom, he said have already achieved their goals for higher education, and would be forced to look outside of Montego Bay for job prospects.
"So, you invest in tertiary and higher education, but you need to take the other step of increasing your involvement in the city in terms of economic activity and invest, expanding production in the city and creating jobs," continued Morrison.
Morrison further explained that the investment climate was right with the economy stabilising and the Government facilitating investment through tax reform provided encouragement, "not just to the well-connected, but to people who have never had access to benefits for small hotels and attractions".

By enhancing its public communications capabilities, your contribution will help improve the NAE's visibility, enhance its relevance, and broaden its impact.
NAE Grand Challenges For Engineering - The NAE, at the request of the National Science Foundation, convened a committee of leading technical thinkers to identify the Grand Challenges for Engineering in the 21st Century. Much input was considered, ranging from experts in science or engineering to the broader general public. Their 14 game-changing goals for improving life on the planet, announced in 2008, are outlined below. The committee also suggested these Grand Challenges fall into four cross-cutting themes of: Sustainability, Health, Security, and Joy of Living.
NAE Independent Fund - This is NAE's unrestricted and main operating fund, supporting general activities of the NAE. As our one truly discretionary resource, the fund supplements projects and activities such as EngineerGirl!, the Bueche and Founders Awards, the WTOP radio series, improvements to the NAE's website, and many more. Additionally, this fund has allowed the NAE to undertake such landmark projects as Rising Above the Gathering Storm, America's Energy Future, and Grand Challenges for Engineering.
President's Initiatives Fund - This fund supports exploratory studies and new initiatives as directed by NAE presidents. The seed money will empower NAE to be proactive in identifying and leading initiatives important to the welfare of the nation and the engineering profession.
Engineering Education - The NAE's program office is dedicated to understanding and improving engineering education. To do so, the NAE has completed varied investigations in areas including K-12 engineering, evaluating faculty instruction, and lifelong learning. Your gift allows NAE to continue cultivating and disseminating effective and innovative teaching methods.
In an effort to meet this need, the NAE established LinkEngineering as an online community of educators interestin in providing meaningful engineering experiences to PreK-12 students of all abilities. LinkEngineering's educators work with students in classrooms and other settings, and participants include - but are not limited to - teachers, teacher educators, and administrators. The site allows members to connect with each other and engineering education experts.
Ethics Education and Leadership - The Center for Engineering, Ethics, and Society (CEES) was formed to address ethical and societal challenges stemming from technological innovation by bringing them to the attention of the engineering profession and our citizenry. As part of its mission, CEES manages the NAE Online Ethics Center (OEC) for engineering and research. The OEC is a popular on-line resource containing accessible materials for practitioners, educators, students, and other individuals interested in professional and research ethics. Together, CEES and OEC draw on the expertise of NAE members to continue to enhance the functionality and content of the OEC to encourage and broaden societal discussion and decision-making. Private support maintains NAE initiatives pertaining to ethics and further the missions of CEES and OEC.
Frontiers of Engineering Education - Engineering is a global enterprise, and America's workforce for the 21st century must include well-educated engineers capable of working in, creating, and leading the industries that will drive our economy, create jobs, and solve many of the problems faced by our nation and the world.
To meet this challenge, the NAE conceived Frontiers of Engineering Education (FOEE), a multi-year activity to identify, prepare, and nurture exceptional young engineering faculty to teach and train the next generation of engineers. FOEE holds an annual 3-day working convocation of up to 100 extraordinary young engineering faculty members who present their innovative approaches to classroom, laboratory, project, experiential, computer-based, or other modes of successful 21st century engineering instruction. Gifts made to this project support all aspects of the FOEE Program.

Private support sustains NAE's ongoing initiative to enable fast-paced innovation in the U.S., and to develop a workforce with the skills necessary for the future of U.S. manufacturing.
Diversity Award - This Award will honor an individual, project, organization, or institution for outstanding contributions to improving gender, racial, and other forms of diversity in engineering. The awardee will deliver a plenary talk at the NAE Annual Meeting and publish the lecture in the NAE quarterly, The Bridge. An important purpose of the lecture will be to offer a vision of the challenges and opportunities to achieving greater diversity in engineering. Funds raised to support the Award would be used to cover all aspects of organizing and presenting the Award.
Named and Endowed Positions - The NAE Program Office's work is defined by its range and depth of expertise. Named and endowed positions help NAE attract and retain the best talent to staff projects and programs, and maintain an intellectually rigorous and independent agenda. Positions can be funded to support areas like energy, environment, education, ethics, diversity, health, media, and public engagement. By endowing an NAE officer position, you can help us continue developing staff who will provide crucial guidance to support the work and policy activities that impact society.
21st Century Communication - This fund would help assure that NAE is well positioned to fully leverage new and emerging forms of Internet-based communication including social media to improve the impact of our work. By taking advantage of these creative and innovative tools, the NAE can enhance its relevance, positioning us to fully engage in national and global engineering conversations.
Engineering Innovation Podcast and Radio Series - For 15 years, NAE has been working with the Washington, DC, region's most-listened to radio station— WTOP Radio— and the nation's only all-news radio station for federal employees— WFED 1500 AM— to provide weekly features highlighting engineering innovations and stories that add technical context to issues in the news. Private funds provide core support of this program including staff time, equipment, and other associated expenditures as needed.
Public Understanding of Engineering - Engineering has been a vehicle for change and progress throughout history, as well as a strong influence on our quality of life and economic prosperity. A better understanding of what engineers do and the challenges they face is crucial to inform members of a forward-looking society. Gifts support projects that promote the understanding of engineering and technical literacy among the general public, and encourage young people to pursue engineering as a profession. Current projects in this area include Changing the Conversation; the NAE's continued involvement in the Grand Challenges for Engineering; the NAE's participation in the USA Science and Engineering festivals; and the EngineerGirl! website and essay contest.

This project focuses on understanding the psychological and neural mechanisms that give rise to cognitive control. Cognitive control processes are a component of human mental function that is fundamentally important in a wide range of domains, including attention, working memory, episodic memory, and decision making. Cognitive control disruptions are thought to be a major source of functional impairment for individuals suffering from a variety of mental health disorders and neuropsychiatric diseases (e.g., schizophrenia, depression, ADHD, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, etc). Prior research, conducted over the last decade, has suggested that there may be a core dimension of variability related to the temporal dynamics and neural circuitry of cognitive control, which is reflected in shifts between two qualitatively distinct modes of control, proactive and reactive. This work has provided a strong experimental base of findings suggesting that this variability is: a) present in healthy individuals and occurs across a range of cognitive domains, b) observable in terms of unique dynamic neural signatures, and c) likely contributing to behavioral deficits in impaired populations (e.g., healthy aging, schizophrenia). However, to date, this research has been confined to small-scale studies focusing on single tasks and using restricted participant samples. In the current proposal represents a rigorous and ambitious attempt to """"""""scale up"""""""" this research endeavor, through a large-sample study, involving within-subject fMRI assessments in multiple cognitive control domains, a combined correlational/experimental design, extensive characterization of individual differences variation, and sophisticated psychometric and statistical data modeling. A key feature of the proposed project is its integration and synergistic relationship with the on-going Human Connectome Project (HCP), which will provide the most comprehensive characterization of normative human brain function and variation in the history of neuroscience research. Specifically, as part of the current project, a subset of HCP participants (a diverse and well-characterized sample of MZ/DZ twins) will be recruited for retesting in tasks that are specifically designed to probe and dissociate proactive and reactive control, while utilizing the same fMRI scanner, acquisition, analysis and databasing protocols of the HCP. This will enable the project to achieve tight integration and linkage with comprehensive brain connectivity and genetic data acquired through the HCP. The key goal of the project will be to test and validate the provocative hypothesis that proactive and reactive control form distinct and coherent endophenotypic constructs that provide a bridge between genetic variation, neural circuitry and dynamics, and observable behavioral profiles. Success is in this effort will have important theoretical and clinical implications, by providing a clearer understanding of the sources of normal human variation, and even more importantly, highlighting potential risk vulnerability factors for a range of mental health disorders.
This project has high relevance for public health by providing critical and detailed information regarding the brain-basis of normal human variation in higher mental functions such as attention, memory, decision-making, and intelligence. Such knowledge will be critical in helping to better understand the relationship between normal functioning and mental health disorders (such as schizophrenia, depression, addiction, ADHD), as well as risk vulnerability factors that may contribute to such disorders.
